The Turkeys Just Voted For Christmas.

A motion to dissolve Parliament and pave the way for an immediate general election has been rejected by MPs.

SNP Westminster leader Angus Robertson called for an "historic, reforming election" to rebuild trust in politics in the wake of the expenses scandals.

But Welsh Secretary Peter Hain said an early poll would "trigger instability".

The motion was rejected by 340 votes to 268.

Mr Robertson told the Commons that arguments against dissolution were motivated by "pure naked self preservation" on the part of the Labour Party, which performed badly in the local and European elections.

Why is there no credible opposition to this Stasi Labour Brown Pile. It will all end with blood being spilt on the streets. The state of the country and politics proves there is no democracy only a dictatorship.

Weird, they know the correct answer, but refuse to allow themselves to acknowledge reality.
